AWESOME TEACHER, IF YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT ACCT. GO TO EVERY CLASS, SHE IS A BIT AIRY BUT YOU GET USED TO IT. HOMEWORK IS SIMPLE, TESTS ARE OK...NO NEED TO READ THE BOOK..STUDY FOR THE TESTS
Great teacher makes class fun.
Definetely taking her again for my other Bus class. She is very helpful. This class wasn't my strength I'm at a B. Next class hope to get an A. Goes over everything on the test.
Excellent teacher. Always helped students when needed.The other rating does not know what they're talking about. Highly recommend this teacherr!!!
I don't know what that rating is talking about, because this teacher sucks. She can't teacher for the life of her. Just don't take her!!!!!!! I repeat don't take her!!!
Go to class, do the homework,study notes you will do fine. Accounting is not my strong point and got a B. She is very helpful. Recommend!!!
Great instructor, gives notes, homework done in class,and take home quiz. Just go to class,do the work. Class easy if you put forth the effort. Would take again.
This teacher rocks. Gives notes, lots of examples, explains everything well, homework done in class, studyguides for each test. Never really understood accounting until I took her. Go to every class, pay attention, do the work, and you will do well!! RECOMMEND!!
Professor Mittler is so helpful. She does lots of examples and does alot of the problems in class to make sure we all get it. If you go to class, read the book and notes, you shouldn't have problems. Would take again.
I don't recommand this teacher, she is awful. Mr. flynn is way better. You can understand Mr. flynn better because he explains it very well, not like mittler.
I did like Prof. Mittler. She took the time to go over all homework, and questions. Go to class, do the homework, and go over notes. I knew nothing about accounting and did well. Good instructor
One of the better teachers at Moraine. Did most homework in class,did alot of examples. Went over quizes-not hard. Test very fair-study notes and you won't have any problems. Just make sure to go to all her classes.
Prof. Mittler took the time to meet over Spring break to help me. She is the best. She goes over all the homework and takes the time to go over any and all questions in class. These people are obvious bad students.
I took her for both 142 and 143,I was scared at 1st because I heard accounting can be hard and I recommend her! She breaks everything down and is very hands on about learning. The few saying she sucks are the ones who didn't feel the need to study, or ask for help. If you read a little, study the study guide and do the hw you will get an A or B.
Took this class over the summer. Great prof., who really knows her stuff. I didn't have accting classes before and she really expains things well.
Probably the worse teacher I've had at Moraine Valley. These other people below me are either relatives or something of that sort. If you like teachers that come into class unprepared, stutter, do not use the board, and do not use power points then this is the perfect teacher for you. I would recommend Mr. Flynn instead.
one of the best teachers at moraine. she will stay with youn the subject if you show some interest. iuderstand that this is college and we are expected to read the text book. her lectures are well planned and always intering.
Ms. Mittler is a good teacher. To me she was just average. I didn't really feel a connection there with the class. She knows her stuff and can explain it well. Very fair. Exams are not that bad. Only criticism is that when she would explain things, sometimes she wouldn't explain it in a way that I could understand. That's just me though.
Definitely my favorite instructor this semester. She is very clear when explaining reach chapter. I will be taking her next semester for BUS-143.
Great instructor. Goes over all the homework. She has the ability to breakdown the chapters so its easy to understand.
Mittler made the class interesting. Willing to help, all notes given, goes over the homework and reviews for test. Great teacher!!
I like Mrs. Mittler. She tries the best she can to make this awful material fun and understandable. She will help you if u ask stay after class whatever. She is a quality techer but you have to be a rare breed to enjoy this stuff. She is beautiful which at times can make the material even harder to follow.
I like Mrs. Mittler. Very helpful but the material is abrasive! She wants the best for her students who put forth effort.
I like this professor she does the best she can with this awful dry material. She will give you extra help if u ask. She wants her students to do well. there will be no cheating in this class.
Tried her best to be fair on tests and quizzes. The class was not too hard. I would recommend her shes a nice person.
I would not recommend this professor.
Hard class, be ready to take very good notes and to memorize lots of equations. Need to bring the book EVERY day to class, she teaches right out of it. Exams are tricky and most of your grade. All quizzes are online, homework is taken for credit, as well as attendance.
Easy class, homework was based on if you tried, she gave you all the test questions, and she constantly went over simple mechanics to accounting that it became boring. Shes very funny about cell phones so watch out.
Not sure what her problem is, some days will come in normal and other days straight up mean. Really doesnt like answering questions. Three tests last one is take home. Ive had Flynn and her, Id go with her, shes at least more specific about what to expect on tests.
She's straightforward with what to expect on the exams. Doesn't really give out homework. The exams and quizzes basically what make your grade. If you talk to her she'll try to help you. It's a hard class in general so be prepared to study a lot
She was very helpful. I like that she went over the homework in class and gave us class time to start the homework. Gives studyguides for each test, and quizzes online.
Make sure to go to her office hours if your struggling, very helpful. Provides the notes on canvas, quizzes online, three tests and take home. The study guides help a lot. Bring the notes to class and she tells you what to focus on for each test.
Helpful instructor. Four tests includes open book one. Problems started in class, goes over the homework. Explains things good.
took this class in the summer, not so bad. A lot of the homework done or started in class. Tells you what to study for tests. Notes on canvas, examples done in class. Explains things pretty good.
I never took accounting before thought it would be boring. She tried to make the class fun by playing accounting games. Notes and study guides online. Goes over what to study for tests. I would always stay after for help, willing to help and goes over homework in class.
Mrs. Mittler usually has an attitude if students ask questions that don't make sense. One day she is nice and all of a sudden she seems annoyed. She grades on a few things. Exams are difficult and she usually says "read the chapters from your book and you'll be fine." I recommend to take someone else if you want to pass.

I really enjoyed this class. Mrs. M. lets the class start the homework in class. Tests not to bad questions from book and notes. She has no problem answering my questions. I think the whole class was annoyed when these students would talk or use their phones. Then ask questions when she just finished how to do something!!
She goes through lessons like the class is already supposed to know the material. She gets upset if you dont answer questions . 4 test 1 open book but she doesnt prepare you for that one.
Did some group work with homework problems, very helpful. Make sure to bring the notes to class on Canvas, easier to understand when she goes over the chapter. Does a lot of examples in class. I liked how she goes over the homework problems.
Read, read and you will do well. Take notes and follow along in class lectures.
Horrible teacher. She gets mad if you dont understand something. She just reads off of her power points and doesnt actually help you solve the problems. Tough grader and the tests are not on the material covered in class. Dont take her.
Let's say this, I'm a 4.0 GPA student who understands that hard work is necessary to pass classes but this class is a whole different animal. The tests are very difficult. She literally says that her study guides are useless because she wants you to read the book. THE CATCH IS: each test covers roughly 200 pages of material in 2 weeks. Good luck ;)
Do not take her if you want an A. Makes you work hard and doesn't explain the material well. There are plenty of other accounting teachers at Moraine that most definitely can and do a better job.
Mittler is honestly one of the worst teachers I have ever had at moraine, and I am not one to complain. With that being said Ive never felt so lost in a subject due to the lack of explanation done by her. She expects you to just understand everything the first time she goes over it. ALSO she doesnt ever fully answer questions. BEWARE.
I like this professor. She stayed after class to help me. I don't understand something I ask qestions. I never had accounting so i go to her office hours and am doing well.
Took her for 142 and 143. I like how she goes over all the homework problems. Class made you think and had to do the homework to understand. The notes helpded me and she'll let you know what to study for tests. Gave alot of examples is class which helped.
Mrs. Mittler has convinced me of how interesting and important accounting is to understand and plan your life better. I feel challenged and included in her class. Don't listen to the negative comments here and go see for yourself. If you're a little smart and logical, you'll understand everything! Also you have to take time to read and comprehend.
Mrs. Mittler was very helpful. Tries to explain the material in every day terms. Starts homework problems in class, goes over the homework. Make sure to go to every class cause if you have to learn the material from the book from missed classes it's way tough. Listen to lectures she'll tell you what to study for on tests and example questions.
You have to show up to class and make sure you read the book and go over notes. The tests weren't hard it covers the stuff from the notes and lectures she gives sample questions from tests. If you don't come to class or don't read it will be tough. Expects you to come to class prepared, don't whine if you don't come prepared for class.
has 4 tests that cover 3 chapters each. Homework is collected for credit, helpful for the tests to go over homework. Gives notes on Canvas, has youtubes-liked. I'm not a business major and was nervous but the class not that hard. Print out notes for class, lectures go into more detail so take notes.
I liked this professor. Quizzes online. 4 Tests - noticed she goes over similar problems and questions to make sure you know the stuff.
The professer goes over the homework in class. A few of the tests were open book. One group project. Test not too bad will tell you what to study.
I like how professer went over the homework in steps in class. Will go over it as many times it takes for class. She has notes on canvas and lectures on important things in chapter. Gives practice problems in class to make sure our class understood concepts. Reviews any questions from class and goes over tests. credit for homework-no late work.
Gives many examples in class. Quizes online. Tests not that difficult- she'll explain what you should look over before each test. Lectures on highlights of each chapter. Notes online and chapter homework on Canvas. Will go over homework and any questions for each chapter. Helpful.
Good teacher. Very helpful.
Class was pretty easy. She tells you what to study and helps with the homework. Tests not that bad and gives you the notes for each chapter. Quizzes online.
Class was pretty easy. Goes over each chapter-bring book makes it easier. Provides the notes. Tells you what to study for tests. Went over homework if our class had quetions. (print out notes she'll mention stuff like this is important -then I knew what to study for tests)
took prof. and she waas helpful. make sure to ask questions if you don't get it she will work with you. Have to study for tests but she lets you know what to go over for each test. Quizzes online. Work in groups to solve problems in class.
This is a required class for my program, not a numbers person. Class wasn't that difficult. Key is to do the homework and ask questions. Always available if you need help.
I had professor Mittler for financial accounting and the class isn't difficult but requires a little bit of studying because accounting is new unless you have taken an accounting class before. If you show up to class, take notes, and do the homework your grade should be fine.
Very organized. Exam every 2-3 chapters (5 total). 10 question quizzes, 2 attempts on canvas. Every module is lecture, quiz, and hw on mintap. Her lectures were helpful and she went through examples of problems on the homework and quiz. As long as you watch her lectures, look at the notes she provides, and do the hw you should be fine.
LOVED Prof Mittler! Wasn't sure how I would be taking an Accounting class since I'm not good at math but the way she explained things over her pre-recorded lessons REALLY made things easy for me! I waited too long and wasn't able to get into her Managerial Acc. class but DEFINITELY TAKE HER!!!!!! She will help you if you are still confused too!
The professor is very nice and caring. She sends weekly emails reminding you to complete your work. Every week is a short quiz, homework assignment, and lecture video, it's really not too bad. The textbook comes free with the class too! Definitely recommend her, it's not an easy A, you have to work for your grade, but that's college.
Do you know how there is a professor that makes an easy class hard, and how another makes a hard one easy? Well, this is a professor that makes a hard class 10 times harder. I think she should teach philosophy instead as she always answers a question with a question.
Professor Mittler provides many examples. She's also VERY patient since some classmates will ask the same question she just answered. Tries to break everything down in steps.
Tests not bad, goes over what to study in class, quizzes online 2 attempts, homework online, goes over in class -make sure to ask. Print out notes because she will tell you what to study during lectures. The key is to ask questions if your not sure.
Mitler makes accounting very easy to learn and takes her time to make sure students understand the concepts. The material does get difficult toward the last unit (especially with stocks and bonds) but overall so long as you do the weekly homework assignments and pay attention/take good notes, you should be fine. Don't be afraid to asks questions.
She is an ok teacher but shes not the best at explaining material. She goes over problems in class of whats gonna be on the test, but half the test is multiple choice from the book and thats what made it difficult because thats not what we focused on in class. So make sure you take the time to read the chapter from the book and memorise key things.
I like how Professor Mittler provides notes for each chapter and will go over the notes and chapter problems. She also lets you know what's important from each chapter and how to study for the tests.
This professor is very helpful. She gives the notes and goes over the homework problems. Pay attention to her lectures she will tell you what's important from each chapter and on the test.
Be ready for the lectures to be heavy. Goes over the material that will be on quizzes/tests.
Weekly Online homework is easy, has examples that walk you through the answers. Weekly quizes ok but not worth many points for the time spent. Tests are HARD, she doesn't give study guide, not enough time to finish, doesn't give answer key to learn from. Doesn't give extra credit or curve exams. If you fail tests you will most likely fail the class
The professor is very patient. Friendly and easy to approach, she helped me with problems and how to study for college tests. YouTubes and notes are provided for the chapters. Make sure to read the notes- questions come directly from them for quizzes and tests.
Take Professor Mittler, but be prepared to teach yourself. I took her for BUS 142 + 143 and by far she was more hands-on for 142. !43 has youtube lectures rather than her own work, so they don't tie perfectly into the homework like 142 lectures did. Cengage homework + weekly quizzes. If you're an independent learner you will love her and she cares
This professor is terrible for in-person classes. The class relies on three tests, and failing any of them means failing the course. Quiz and homework points help only a little. Her study guides are vague and minimal. It feels like she is learning along with us, making it harder to understand. She doesn't curve or offer extra credit. Be cautious.
Good professor herself. Knows her stuff and teaches well. The information is hard although. Study guides are pretty vague, tests have what the study guides have, but you'll never know what the test is going to ask and you forget most concepts about what you study.
barely teaches anything. assigns homework but you have to teach yourself the material. she basically just asks us to watch youtube videos of other professors teaching instead.
This professor provided many examples of problems. She also has the notes for each chapter and YouTube videos to access if you need help. The homework and quizzes are online and straightforward.
I'm going to be completely honest, this was the worst class i've taken. She's nice as a person but horrible as a professor. She read off the notes and hardly taught. there were times where she would make us watch youtube videos of someone else teaching. Her tests were nothing like what she has on the study guides as well. had to teach myself
Worst class I've taken here. She's nice but can't teach. Reads off notes, shows YouTube videos instead of teaching, and gets mad if no one answers her questions. Tests don't match study guides or lectures, shoot, the study guides don't have anything helpful in them. Had to teach myself everything. Content doesn't align with the book either.
This professor provides the class notes and videos for extra support. She will go over questions and problems during class. I was the only one asking questions. She goes over the notes and points out what will be on the test. Make sure to pay attention because a lot of the test questions are covered in the lectures.
Just don't take her, take any other available professor and if there's none other available then don't take the course.
For online classes she gives you Youtube Videos and notes. Everything she has on those she has on the exams which makes studying and learning the material easy. Overall, she is a great teacher.
The stuff she teaches you and in the book are straightforward. The class is easy to do well in if you look at the notes and read the textbook.
Prof. Mittler will help the class by taking extra time explain the material to those who ask- like me. Her tests are straight forward and she tells you what to study. Notes are available for each class. The class covers many chapters so review the material weekly.
Professor Mittler was a very respectful professor. She understands people may be new to accounting, and shes alway making sure that everyone understands. Extra credit. Not sure how many exams we took, perhaps two and the final, but they're all things we learn in class, so study, write notes down, ask questions, you'll be fine. Overall good course.
don't even bother her class it pure lectures and just overall didn't even learn anything. taught everything myself she just read of the presentations all day. mind you her class is 1 hour 50 minutes so have fun staring at her reading all day.
I like this professor. She goes over each chapter and provides her power points. The lectures are interesting, she tries to relate the class to the business world. Make sure to bring her notes or take notes because she will say what's on the test.
The things you should expect from this class is 4 exams. Very long lectures that you will fully need to understand for exams. Read the textbook because Mittler likes to pull information from the book and add to exam. Very vague study guide (if she decides to post them for certain exams). Best suggestion is to study terms and word problems for exams
